Happy Hacking Keyboards

(inspired from another thread)
I know this has been discussed on LNO before, but I might get one for my birthday since my birthday's 2 months away...

Does anyone have one? If so, did they really pay fscking $69 for it?
I'm just contenting myself with remapping my keys to approximate the happy hacking keyboard's, but I can't help but be curious at what's so special about these keyboards.

Also, I'm wondering why there aren't any companies making them and sell them cheaper. As far as I know, only PFU (or whatever it is) makes them.

Re: Happy Hacking Keyboards

I've seen them as well and have to say that they seem pretty cool. They have the classic unix layout and are smaller. At the same point, 69$ is a lot for a keyboard. I'd get it if it was a gift and I had nothing better to ask for.

Re: Happy Hacking Keyboards

it's hard to make yourself pay 50+ dollars for a keyboard when you can get one for like 10 bucks. especially when you know no matter how much it costs, sooner or later you're going to spill your coffee/tea/jolt/red bull on it.

Re: Happy Hacking Keyboards

Thats it. Thats the exact keyboard (minus the happy hacking label) I used to have. I think my cuzin has it or it was sold at a garage sale. The last time I saw it was 5 years ago. I think I'll make an effort to find it if someone in the family still owns it.
